Bill Richardson misleads on immigration (again, and again...)

Not content to simply lie about the border fence or to be a shill for the OAS, on June 12, 2007 Bill Richardson made two misleading statements about immigration:

1. He offered the now-standard "false choice" between a massive legalization plan (i.e., amnesty) and mass deportations. He forgot to mention a third choice: "attrition". Under that plan we'd enforce our current laws in order to encourage many illegal aliens to return home voluntarily.

2. He claimed that legalization was not amnesty, ignoring how any such plan will be perceived by millions and millions of people around the world. They will definitely see it as amnesty, and they'll come a-running to take part in either the current or a future amnesty.

Even Arlen Specter and the New York Times have admitted that it's amnesty; can't Bill Richardson reach even their low standards for telling the truth?

This is what happens when a Mexican had power inside a Government local of federal ( DRUG DEALERS ), the people of Mexico ( Home of the oligarch of evil ) will watch each other and do the right thing BY EACH OTHER, This little pig of Mexico Bill Richardson ( evil rat ) is doing his thing for his country and that country is not the USA, Just look around and see with real eyes the evil that is here and is coming to YOU!.

Richardson is so concerned that Californians understand that he is a MEXICAN!!! So he can garner votes from his compadres...FAT PIG!! POWER Hungry LOSER!!!! UGH...Can you picture this fat hog as President..when that happens we will have reached the status of Mexico a third world hell-hole!!!

QUESTION: Hi, this is Lucia Ballie (ph) for a group of friends on the east side of L.A. And our question is: Does your health care plan cover undocumented workers? RICHARDSON: Yes, it would. It should cover everybody. (APPLAUSE) In this country, no matter who you are, whether you're a ditch- digger, you're a teacher, you're a CEO, you're a waiter, you're a maid, every American deserves the right to the best possible quality health care. 'Undocumented' = American to Bill Richardson. It's hard to take anything he says seriously after that. And anyone who continues to play the mass deportation straw man doesn't even deserve serious attention. Lonewacko, you implore people to discredit these candidates. Has there ever been an easier topic to discredit someone on than Richardson's universal health coverage for the 'undocumented'? All Anderson Cooper had to say was something like, 'So any sick person in the world, if they can find their way to the U.S., we would have to treat their illness, no matter what it is or how expensive it is? How could that possibly work? Wouldn't that bankrupt the program in nothing flat? Please explain, Governor.'

It is said that there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries. The Netherlands and Belgium are as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them. Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to "assimilate," i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites. What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries? How long would it take anyone to realize I'm not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem? And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn't object to this? But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews. They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.

Joe you are Great, thank you! also the white population is only 10 percent of the worlds people so why are almost all white counties rich?
